understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
I’m a writer. When I was about 7 months pregnant with my son I wrote a story about a boy with a strawberry birthmark on his forehead. I have no idea where I got that detail, it just came to me as I was writing. Two months later I gave birth to my son, and he had a red birthmark right in the middle of his forehead, much like I described in my story.
